Abstract

A utility box container primarily used in pick-ups or SUV's that will allow better utilization of the full truck bed by being able to access the back of the bed. The container is generally from four feet to eight feet in length and wide enough to allow two to three units to be used together, the dimensions depend on the pick-up bed length it is to be used in. The box is also collapsible. The ability to collapse the container in place in the bed of the truck allows for placing large objects into the pick-up bed without the need to remove the container. The large objects can be placed directly on top of the collapsed box.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A collapsible storage container for a pick-up truck bed that is long enough to allow it to slide into the forward area of the bed, typically 4 to 8 feet in length, thereby allowing this area to be better utilized for storage while being able to easily retrieve the container by standing at the rear of the vehicle
 Upon being collapsed it allows larger items to be placed on top of it eliminating the need to remove it from the bed of the pickup in order to transport larger items.   This configuration provides a novel storage container for use in pick-up trucks which provides an effective method for utilizing the full area of the pick-up bed.   Other boxes and containers designed for use as storage containers for pick-ups do not have the proper length for accessibility or, if so, is not collapsible thus forcing removal of the box from the bed in order to use the bed for larger objects.   This unit will provide both functions for this particular applications need.
